The last survivor of the sinking of the Titanic has died aged 97.Millvina Dean was nine weeks old when the liner sank after hitting an iceberg in the early hours of 15 April 1912, on its maiden voyage from Southampton.The disaster resulted in the deaths of 1,517 people in the north Atlantic, largely due to a lack of lifeboats.Miss Dean, who remembered nothing of the fateful journey, died on Sunday at the care home in Hampshire where she lived, two of her friends told the BBC.Her family had been travelling in third class to America, where they hoped to start a new life and open a tobacconist's shop in Kansas.Miss Dean's mother, Georgetta, and two-year-old brother, Bert, also survived, but her father, Bertram, was among those who perished when the vessel sank.

Go to all that trouble to save her and she dies anyway. RIP.
She had a nice, long life.
That was my point. The dear lady wasn't aborted by the Titantic's sinking before she had a chance to live. Isn't it wonderful?
